An ecosystem expanded by its people

Community is where use begins

VERY’s expansion is about more than app-install counts. People invite friends, organize local gatherings, introduce stores and share how to use the services. Communities and merchants connect the digital network to everyday relationships.

Event photos on the website record this participation. Local events are identified as user-organized, except those marked as official Meetups in Korea. An event record does not establish every attendee’s reward eligibility or official representative status.

A record of gatherings on the website

See event photos and dates in the community albums. The service websites offer Korean, English, Japanese, Bengali and Indonesian to improve accessibility. Website languages and app translation languages are separate sets.

How growth metrics are defined

The website’s 147 countries and territories refers to the origins of users who completed the first or second KYC round. Its basis differs from the number of countries in the registered-user distribution.

User distribution is an estimate that sums city-location aggregates from access logs by country code. The headline rounds the full map total down to the nearest 10,000; it differs from account-database counts of registered, active and withdrawn users. The map does not reveal individuals’ live locations. Merchant-map locations are registered stores, not a promise that every payment method works at every store.

Support for developers and businesses

Ecosystem support focuses on advertising and development so services can reach users and operate sustainably.

Selection for support does not create unlimited advertising or fixed income. Eligibility, evaluation and support amounts follow each program’s announcement.

The expansion we aim for

We connect what people actually do rather than simply list more apps: from conversation to transfers, store payments to sales management, and business advertising to community. These connections guide ecosystem expansion.

Roadmap

Product experiences available today

The website review centers on VeryChat conversations, channels and participation rewards; VeryWallet profile transfers; VeryPOS stablecoin payments and store management; and VeryAds VERY-based advertising. Each product chapter explains supported networks and usage conditions.

Directions for the next expansion

Schedules, supported countries and release scope are updated through official product announcements.

Broadening participation

Channel subscription and staking rewards have not launched. Designs connecting community activity and content contributions to rewards are being considered; criteria and launch timing will be announced separately. We improve products and support together so local communities, merchants and advertisers can keep using the services.

The roadmap does not guarantee fixed release dates. It distinguishes available features from development directions; releases and policy changes trigger updates to this document and the relevant product guidance.
